Having worked in an admissions department at a hospital, I can tell you that SNNs are rarely verified by admissions personnel. Equal parts laziness due to job dissatisfaction and lack of time due to overwhelming workload.
We would key in whatever number the patient gave us. It would be quite easy to provide a fake number and the hospital would not be aware.
receiving a subscription request to the channel dedicated to the episodic media from the user
RSS feeds do not manage subscriptions, they do not receive subscription requests. The act of "subscribing" is no more than the end user having a program that automatically rechecks an XML file that exists somewhere in cyberspace. The USER has to subscribe, the podcaster does not receive any sort of subscription request, they simply host the files.
This patent seems like a closed system, where proprietary software is used to manage a subscription and it interfaces with a server that receives and verifies the subscription request. I don't see how traditional podcasting is covered by this at all.
I can see defying an order, or defying a subpoena, or defying a C&D, but it sounds to me like they thought that, until they were legally prevented from doing otherwise, they'd conduct business as usual.
There are only three "famous" people whose deaths made me sad to the point of weeping. The first was Jim Henson, the second was Johnny Carson. Tim Russert is the third. He was truly irreplaceable, and no matter what you think of his politics, his love of life and family were to be admired and emulated. Tim, you will be missed.
Um, people are talking about him because he's the presumptive Republican nominee. Why wouldn't people talk about him? We're stuck with talking about him until November!
I'd be curious if the IT professionals they polled were even eligible to vote in the upcoming election. In the company I work for, at least 60% of the IT department are not US citizens.

That's like saying the Coca-Cola Company invented cocaine.

Don't mock people with LED allergies!
Based on the title, I thought Eddie Murphy found another tranny prostitute.
Dorito Lisa?
I don't think the Pimp's Union will stand for that.
Can't someone just register again under another email address?

Yes, the reason is Apple Corps, Ltd agreed they wouldn't sue them if they did it.
Meanwhile, terrorists will just encrypt their data on thumbdrives and shove 'em up their ass.

Now it can lose my data twice as fast the last one I bought.
Elections are funded by public dollars, too. Who did you vote for in the last election?
But you can rent it for a few hundred bucks.
If the software they install can delete and alter files, how can any evidence they procure be admissible in a court of law?
my brain is still on dial-up.

Or maybe 853-5937 for us who prefer Squeeze to Tommy Tutone?
You said the same thing about vaginas.
